Balearic Islands Mandate Late-Night Alcohol Sales Ban in Tourist Hotspots
What happened
The government of the Balearic Islands has mandated a new directive banning alcohol sales from shops after 9:30 pm. This measure targets tourist hotspots including San Antonio, and also covers Llucmajor, Palma, and Magaluf. Tourists are permitted to purchase alcohol in bars and restaurants after the cutoff time.

Why it matters
The move was introduced by officials to curb street chaos in the islands. However, reports indicate that the effectiveness of the ban is being tested, as purchases are still being made in the late hours at some establishments.
